If that's not bad enough, Notch might be thinking about making Herobrine an actual feature.

I'm having an issue. I have dug pretty deep into a cavern, and now I've hit a HUGE obsidian/diamond/gold/redstone deposit. this room has pretty much everything. The only problem, is that a majority of it is in the floor, right on top of lava. how should I harvest?

Wigmund · 09-19-2010, 08:17 PM

If you can, work your way to the lava pool and build stone blocks into the first layer of it underneath the deposits.

DarkDrgon · 09-19-2010, 08:22 PM

The problem is that I am going from Floor-lava. there is no visible lava, but there is a rather large lake of it right under my feet. I can't dig down anymore.

Ah, then you're SOL

Wow major seconded to the person who said it was Survival Horror, I made a nice little house in the wall and I start digging downwards and found that I had dug into an underground cave and I got to meet my new zombie and skeleton neighbors!

They were not friendly. They had a nice little cookout and decided that my brains would be the main course. Needless to say, I've already died once to them and am too afraid to venture into the cave again.

And even though I saw a few tutorial videos about how to survive against enemies, I never knew that zombies could freakin' explode! One guy exploded and only took two of my hearts, but still managed to get close to my house and absolutely decimate it, despite the outer walls being covered with torches.

With all that craziness said, I'm very likely going to buy it anyway when the server comes back on. I'm still wondering why the sound isn't working though.

I hate the creepers. I tend to cheat, and play in pacifism mode until I can get an ok base going. once I have something livable, I put it on hard and fear for my life.

Viridis · 09-19-2010, 09:50 PM

I wanna try pacifist just because I'm sick of cave deaths at the moment.

Doc ock rokc · 09-19-2010, 11:00 PM

worst death so far. Creeper managed to sneak up next to me and detonate. That wasn't the bad part. It turns out that we where on top of a lava spring and right above the lake of death. needless to say I went swimming in the greatest hot tub ever. re spawned far away from my Tower so I have to sneak past zombies and ...and fail miserably. So I decide to hide in a cave till daylight. I hide in the cave they GO TO DURING DAY LIGHT! Needless to say I don't have good runs in this game.

Pyros is a blocky god of death, sending green splodey men, zombies, and skeleton archers to their doom for daring to attack my tower in the middle of the ocean. And despite being a good ways out there, they still try!

My only problem was figuring out crafting, and getting enough string from spiders to make a bow so I don't have to get 12 arrows to the face every time I fight a skelly. It's not that don't see spiders often, but I prefer not to fight spiders mano y mano without a long range weapon or some fire based attack. (Kings Field was hard...). If only one could reverse engineer string into wool or something.

Anyway, I did obtain the needed string when I decided to dig deep down underneath my Tower above the waves, only to take out a "load bearing block" and remove a good portion of the floor beneath me, falling into a cavern where 3 spiders were hanging out.

Needless to say, I have enough string, and a new bitcheon basement, but boy did I seal that one up to make sure no other Arachnia decides to make it their home. Or come home and find out what happened to their wife, daughter, and son spiders.

I do love the part about figuring out how to make stuff and advance. Going from building my house out of sand and dirt to making wood blocks, sticks, tools, weapons, chests, smelters, ginormo tower with an underground minecart to the mainland and a dock for my fleet of boats.

That, and once the sun starts going down, running back to my tower, climbing towards its' highest height, and then building a wall around me just to be extra safe, and wait for morning in complete darkness, because it took me forever to figure out how to make a torch. Because in the dark, you can't tell who just shot you in the face with an arrow, and it makes hopping down into the water to reap bonemeal vengeance silly.
